I was looking for R's for my Ghia. Along the way I noticed the size I was contemplating was available in the Azinas for $40 each. I may have to go street tire with the ghia. R's were over $100 each and may need shaving and cycling.

I was thinking about getting Hoosers for the front tires and Kumo's for the rear. I need all the grip I can get up front and the wear should be low. The rears need a little less traction to promote rotation. Plus the rear tires will get worn quickly. What do you think?

Do you guys think I can get away with Victoracers without shaving them?
